Pit Bull Attack Victims with Severe and Fatal Scalp Injuries

Frankie Flora was attacked by a pit bull adopted out by "Out of the Pits" rescue.

DogsBite.org - We've gathered a number of violent pit bull attacks involving severe and fatal scalp injuries in this post. In some cases, the pit bull or multiple pit bulls have ripped off the victim's entire scalp. These devastating scalp injuries inflicted by pit bulls require documentation so that researchers, doctors, attorneys and parents, can access them. We ask readers to leave links to new pit bull attacks involving severe and fatal scalp injuries in the Comments section below.

New 5 Year Pediatric dog bite study done by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons:

More than 30 different offending breeds were documented in the medical records. The most common breeds included pit bull terriers (50.9 percent), Rottweilers (8.9 percent), and mixed breeds of the two aforementioned breeds (6 percent)

Uh HUNTER KILBORN's attack… side of scalp and he was in a total 'helmet' bandage when they had to figure out the puzzle of the pieces and graft the pieces that were missing. this was a end of August???

Thank you so much for taking the time to compile and update this list. It is crucial to use EVIDENCE to refute wild nutter assertions. A woman actually stated as fact, "no dog has ever 'scalped' a child". I wonder how she's going to go about disqualifying the NINETY PLUS little humans on this list as children (since these fanatics cannot counter the cold, hard, facts, as we know, their either tend to run to 'move the goalpost' methods or going ad hominem). http://topsyturvybloodshed.blogspot.com/2014/12/one-breed-million-excuses.html
